I know that most guys rarely get excited about dressing up, and they're often even LESS excited about having their picture taken. So sometimes our couples are stuck on what to wear for their engagement sessions, because she wants to dress up and he wants to be comfortable.
But ladies I am here to tell you that's ok! You can still go all out in a pretty dress or even one of our tulle skirts even ... Read the Post

It was one part luck and two parts good planning by Dalia, but these photos, taken just last week, have the fresh, vibrant feel of springtime (which I've been missing for weeks). That is mostly is due to the joyful connection between Dalia and Pedro.
We took their engagement photos at my favorite spot, Mercer Botanical Gardens, and this time of year the flowers and landscaping aren't quite as ... Read the Post

One of my biggest regrets in life is that I didn't take maternity photos when I was pregnant with Liam. I can only imagine how special those images would be to me now that he's almost a teenager (gah!). So anytime I get the chance to photograph such a joyful occasion I really give it my all.
I am absolutely in love with Kayla's session! I'm so excited for her because her baby girl is due any ... Read the Post

Ashley and Mitch are getting married today so I thought it would be the perfect day to share their engagement session! We shot these last summer, when it was a million and nine degrees and we were all sweating through our clothes. I LOVE that they brought a little Harry Potter magic to it! Check out the Deathly Hallows print on Ashley's skirt! That said, I think their cute pups were the best ... Read the Post

I honestly don't know who's more excited that Liles and Weston are getting married in just a few weeks, them or me. Ok probably Liles and Weston but I'm a close third. Because how friggin gorgeous is this bride-to-be?!? I told her father "you could put Liles in a potato sack and take the pictures with a first generation iPhone and they would still be worthy of the cover of Vogue".
We shot both ... Read the Post

When Paola reached out to me in June, it was bittersweet. Paola and her husband Miguel were married last winter, and as much as they enjoyed their wedding day they did not love their photos. (I was not their photographer). Like any bride, Paola wanted photos in her beautiful dress, so she booked a bridal portrait session with me. Miguel was a good husband and came along, and even wore his suit in ... Read the Post

You guys. It was SO HOT at Emilee and Shane's engagement session. Even at sunset, it was over a hundred degrees at Mercer Botanical Gardens in Humble, Texas. You have to be a pretty adventurous couple to want to shoot in those conditions. :-)
Emilee and Shane are definitely my people, I mean come on, they wore Deathly Hallow t-shirts and brought Harry Potter wands to their e-shoot! Emilee ... Read the Post

Madison and David are an absolute DREAM to work with. Both are stunning, and they have a connection with one another that you can feel in their photos.
I always include engagement sessions when couples book their weddings with us so that I can have a chance to work with my couple and teach them how to stand and pose before their wedding day. Yeah, Madison and David didn't need any coaching. ... Read the Post

Houston, Texas has some of the most beautiful hidden gems that are perfect places for bridal portraits, maternity pictures, or engagement sessions. If you love our light and airy style, Mercer Botanical Gardens in Humble is the perfect spot during spring!
I love the Grecian columns, the lush blooms and the soft texture that the foliage creates. I've shot so many sessions there this spring and ... Read the Post

I cannot begin to explain how happy I am that spring is here! Flowers are blooming, the weather is warming up (sometimes a little TOO much), and our spring wedding season is heating up!
Of course this had to be the week that Steven is forcing me to go back to the gym again after a loooooong hiatus, but that just means this photog is getting BUFF. And oh so sore.
But Thao and Lawrence's ... Read the Post
